Hi!

You probably want to do what I also had to do some time ago.

My situation was to run an anonymous FTP server which also allows
uploads. I created an incoming directory and gave it only rights for
"wx", so a user can enter it and drom files there, but see nothing.
(This is for a little bit more
safety.)

A little shell script is running in the background and uses 'find' to
detect all files that have not changed for >=5 minutes, which is usually
indicating that upload is finished.
All of these files are renamed (they get a prefix with date&time to keep
their original time when they were uploaded and also make their names
unique hereby) and then transfered (=moved) to the target directory.
In my case the customer wanted to have the files finally on a windoze
machine, so I mounted it and moved the files directly to it.

I also built a similar mechanism for the opposite direction: When the
customer puts a file into the outgoing folder on his windoze machine, it
will be moved to the 'pub' directory of the FTP-Server.


Is this what you want to do?
